Just came downstairs to let the buns out and I saw some red on the floor - asked hubby if they had anything red to eat - like strawberry or something and they hadn't. Picked Splodge up 1st & her hock was covered in blood.
I have bathed it in salt water, and tried to cut some of the fur around it so I can see what is going on, but the fur is so thick that I can't really see what is going on. I was trying to hold her & cut & bathe!!
Hubby tried holding her but she wriggled all over the place - she is a very wriggly bun. So then I held her and she stayed really still for me, but hubby was so useless trying to bathe her and cut the fur I had to do it by myself.
I've looked round the hutch and there is no sign of anything that she has caught it on, and it is fesh blood, so must have been done in the hutch somewhere, or it just started on it's own.
Read somewhere to put sudocreme on it - is that OK? I'm sure I have some somewhere.
I will look at it again before bed to ensure it's not still bleeding. Is there anything else I can do?
